we need to understand that the debate is not so much about this individual, miranda in this case, enemy combatant in this case. it is that, once again, like post- 9/11, the patriots act, now it's the time that we have to take that deep breath and say, backing off of this sort of talk is not protecting this individual. it's protecting our constitutional rights and the tenants of this system. and we need to keep that in mind. we hear nonsense like america's a battlefield so even for u.s. citizens we can throw it all out the window from here going forward because of sudden nebulous war on terror. >> that's the debate, kelly. you've done terrorism cases. when you have senators like lindsey graham saying that the suspect should be tried as an enemy combatant and then "the new york times" comes back with an editorial -- "mr. graham's reckless statement makes a mockery of the superb civilian police work that led to the suspect's capture, starting with the skillful analysis of the video recordings of the marathon. there is no reason that the lawyers and courts cannot continue to do their work."
